FITNESS CENTRE RULES

Inis Fitness members and guests visiting the fitness club must comply with these conditions. These terms are incorporated into The Inis Fitness Members Contract.  Compliance with these terms is important both to maintain the standards at our club and to enable members and guests to get full enjoyment from their membership.  Any person who does not comply with these terms and conditions may have their membership relinquished or may be denied access to the club in the future.  Any guidance on display supersedes all other terms and conditions and is in place to provide a safe environment for all. Your safety and that of our staff here at Inis Fitness is our priority.  We reserve the right to make reasonable amendments to these terms and conditions or our individual Fitness Centre operational rules at any time. If we do we will give members reasonable advance notice by displaying the new rules on the notice board.
